A teenage girl is in a “romantic relationship” with a Northern California high school wrestling coach, and both are now missing, according to authorities.
The unnamed 16-year-old, who was reported missing on Aug. 22, is believed to be with 25-year-old Phillip Maglaya, a wrestling coach at Franklin High School in Stockton, Calif., the San Joaquin County Sheriff’s Office said Saturday.
The two were “in a romantic relationship,” the sheriff’s office said.
The school district did not immediately respond to ABC News’ request for comment.
The teen and coach are believed to be traveling in a 1994 green Toyota extra cab truck with license plate 8G91493, the sheriff’s office said.
Authorities released this photo of a similar truck:
